Today is President's Day in case you weren't watching the calendar and didn't know why you may have got today off from school or work. Here, I was rather confused for awhile, but then remembered it was a national holiday.
Interestingly enough, a few days ago, the Boston Globe released an article, detailing a new book coming out next month by "the dean of Cold War historians"--John Lewis Gaddis--in which the eminent historian argues that only three presidents in American History have excelled at adapting their foreign policy to successfully meet the demands of the age--James Monroe (under the tutelage of Secretary of State John Quincy Adams), FDR and George W. Bush. You can bet it was choking the liberal writers to say that. Who are you going to believe in this? The college-level historian (not a conservative, by the way) or the college dropout (such as Michael Moore)? History has a strange way of vindicating those who do right...which is why the leftists are falling all over each other to provide historians with plenty of anti-Bush material through which to view the President. Hopefully this non-conservative but very real historian will be the first of many to let the facts speak for themselves about the Bush presidency. Happy Presidents Day, Mr. Bush!
